History

I don't remember how exactly I came up with the idea of creating my own website... I think it was when I saw that my friend Ida was owning a beautiful site! Anyway, I started with Piczo and used default menus and stuff like that. Yawk! It was all black with a bright green font! There were pictures of what I liked, music top 5, etc. After, I decided to code the site by myself. Hahaha, I tried to create white and blue "frames", but it turned out a bit ugly. One day, I went on Celestial Star, and found wonderful layouts available for visitors! Obviously, it wasn't for Piczo sites, but I understood html a bit at that time, so I tried to convert the code for Piczo. Believe it or not, it worked! So, my site was looking way more professional than before! I put visitor content, graphics (very basic ones), html codes, etc. My cousin Stefany lend me her Photoshop software and I tried it. Oh my god! At first, there were so many options and tools! I didn't know where to start! After following a couple of tutorials, I learned how it worked. I made a couple of basic graphics, blends, etc... My first ones were so-so, but the next ones were great! After using graphics from Celestial Star, I decided that it was time for me to make my own layouts! I followed another tutorial on Celestial Star and took pictures from Aethereality and Celestial Star galleries. Manga layouts, yeah! Then, the biggest mistake of my Internet life: I decided to put a request page. It was absolutely time consuming! People requested music, html codes, blends, etc. Oh music codes... another problem. I took some from a site. One day, they shut down! Omg... I needed to start everything again! That happened for a second time a couple of weeks later. I was so angry! I decided to stop requests and music codes. A couple of months after, I thought that it was time for something more professional. So, after www.blueangelfish.piczo.com, it was www.freewebs.com/dynamite-designs. Both are still there. On Dynamite-Designs, I made my own layouts with celebrities pictures. That didn't respect copyrights (celebrities pictures). I didn't have a lot of time to update and I lost a lot of visitors. One day, Ida asked me if I wanted a subdomain. Oh my god, I was so happy! I chose the name dynamite.havenoname.com. Sweet and simple! Here I am now! You can see that I've improved a lot!
